Even though Princess Jinyang had never seen anything like this, she still understood what this small porcelain bottle contained from the reactions of the surrounding maids and chambermaids...
She was a little frightened, holding Queen Su's hand tightly, and said urgently: "How can my sister-in-law be so stupid? Put this thing down quickly, it's not a joke!"
Protected and doted on by her father and brother since childhood, she has never faced the test of life and death. Even in the current war for the throne, she has always stayed out of it, because whether Li Chengqian consolidates the throne or the King of Jin rebels and seizes the throne, her status is
There will be no change at all, the emperor is still her brother.
But now, as the queen of a country, Su carries a bottle of poison with her, which makes her feel the cruelty of the current situation. Her relatives will be threatened with death at any time...
Queen Su didn't listen to her words. She put the porcelain vase into her arms and stretched out her arms to wrap around Princess Jinyang's thin shoulders. Her smile was gentle and dignified, and her expression was as calm as water: "Silly boy, I am the Queen of the Tang Dynasty, the Queen of the Sixth Palace."
Your Majesty, my mother is the one who honors the world. You cannot bear the slightest insult. Otherwise, not only will your Majesty’s face be lost, but also the country of Li and Tang will be tarnished. At the critical moment, you must fight to the death to keep your innocence. But now that the situation is unclear, your Majesty has also made arrangements in advance.
We will definitely be able to defeat the rebels, I am just making preparations just in case, so why is there any need to make such a fuss?"
The maids and chamberlains who were kneeling on the ground cried out in tears. The empress of a country had to face the tragedy of dying to express her ambition, and she humiliated her subjects to death...
Princess Jinyang's delicate little face had a firm look on her face: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, from now on I will stay with you. Even if Brother Ninth comes to the palace, no one will dare to disrespect you!"
She believed that with Brother Jiu's love for her, no one would dare to touch her hair.
Queen Su touched Princess Jinyang's temples lovingly and said with a smile: "With Your Highness protecting me, naturally no one can hurt me. My sister-in-law would like to thank you in advance."
Although the little girl is smart, she has not seen the dangers of the world. When the rebel army attacks, even the King of Jin Li Zhi may not be able to restrain her, let alone she is just a princess? But she can already feel the warmth in her heart.
The Tian family is the most ruthless imperial family. In the history books, there are many cases of civil strife between father and son, and fratricide. It is extremely rare to have a princess like Princess Jinyang who cares about her family and dares to stand up in a cruel situation.
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law walked into the palace intimately. As soon as they sat down, they saw Wang De walking in quickly, saying that Princess Changle had arrived...
The two then stood up and went to the door together, welcoming Princess Changle, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, into the palace, and sat down again. Seeing Princess Jinyang's worried look, Princess Changle frowned and asked what happened. Queen Su couldn't stop her, and Princess Jinyang had already quickly arrived.
She revealed that she had hidden poison in case of emergency.
Princess Changle expressed her beauty and said in a clear voice: "The Queen is the mother of a country, and she is the mother of all the people. How can she be subjected to such a crisis? Your Majesty has already made full preparations. There are countless people with lofty ideals inside and outside the palace who have risked their lives to defend the imperial authority and orthodoxy.
, Since ancient times, evil has not suppressed good, and it is absolutely impossible for rebels to succeed in their rebellion."
Queen Su's eyes flashed, and her nervous mind relaxed slightly.
She had no idea what kind of preparations the emperor had made against the rebels, so the unstoppable trend of the rebels entering the palace at this moment made her frightened and panicked, and she had to prepare poison to avoid humiliation in the event of defeat.
However, there is an ambiguity between Changle and Fang Jun, and Fang Jun is His Majesty’s most trusted minister, so any preparation must go through Fang Jun’s hands, so Fang Jun may mention His Majesty’s arrangements to Chang Le...
She asked Princess Changle: "Did Duke Yue tell His Highness how to prepare to resist the rebels?"
Princess Changle's pretty face was slightly red, but she didn't hesitate at all. She shook her head and said, "How could he leak such a major military matter to me? But when he left last night, he told me to go to Wude Hall to take shelter immediately if something happened.
It is said that His Majesty has made preparations in advance, so nothing will go wrong."
Hearing "when we left last night", even though the rebels were approaching a critical situation at this time, the Queen and Jinyang looked at Changle at the same time. One's eyes were full of banter and ambiguity, while the other's eyes were confused.
Even the tips of Princess Changle's ears were red, her eyes were wandering, her eyes were evasive, and she was extremely embarrassed.
The queen didn't want Changle to be too embarrassed, and nodded: "Since the Duke of Yue said this, it must be safe. The Wude Hall where the Taiji Palace is being built is an extremely important palace besides the Taiji Palace, adjacent to the East Palace.
, the nearby palace complex is self-contained. Once the Shenlong Gate, Rihua Gate, Xianchun Gate, Qianhua Gate, Wude Gate and other gates are closed, they can become a heavily defended area, and they will definitely be able to fight to the death with the rebels.
If the rebels are held back, the Duke of Wei outside the city will inevitably lead his troops into the city to support them, so it is reasonable to defeat the rebels."
She wanted to change the topic, but Princess Jinyang asked further: "My sister said that my brother-in-law 'left last night.' Could it be that my brother-in-law stayed in my sister's palace last night? If so, my sister should have called me. I haven't seen him for a long time."
It’s time for brother-in-law.”
The atmosphere in the palace suddenly became silent. Princess Changle seemed to have been cooked. Her face was red, her ears were red and her whole body was hot. She was ashamed and angry. She shouted: "What are you talking nonsense about?"
It would be fine if Fang Jun stayed in her palace for the night, but he also wants to invite you to come with him?
Do sisters serve the same husband together?
Absolutely ridiculous!
Queen Su was also dumbfounded. She lightly slapped the back of Jinyang's hand and said angrily: "Although there are no outsiders here, you still have to be careful when speaking."
Nowadays, the scandal between Fang Jun and Chang Le, the two princesses of Jinyang, is spread everywhere inside and outside the palace, and it is not new that among the dozen brothers-in-law in Jinyang, only Fang Jun is affectionate to Fang Jun. The young girl has a secret affection for the mature man.
It was very normal, so the queen felt that she said this on purpose to express her sister's dissatisfaction with her competing for "toys"...
Princess Jinyang realized later that she had said the wrong thing. She shook her little white hands crazily, her face was red, and she hurriedly defended: "I, I, I didn't mean that, I just haven't seen you for a long time."
My brother-in-law misses me a little and wants to be with my sister... Oops!"
Her Royal Highness the Princess, who has always been very sharp-tongued, covered her face with her hands. She felt that her words did not convey her meaning, and the more she spoke, the more she made mistakes, so she simply covered her face and stopped talking.
The queen found it funny and glanced at Changle, feeling worried again.
It is a beautiful thing for a girl to have a child in her arms. Who has never been young and fallen in love with her in her heart? But when several sisters fall in love with the same man who is destined not to stay together for a long time, it may be the beginning of a lifetime of misery.
The Queen bit her snow-white teeth secretly, and secretly cursed Fang Jun in her heart for being a philanderer, a philanthropist, and especially excessive for picking on princesses, which is really abominable...
*****
The war in Taiji Palace was in full swing and was extremely brutal.
The "Yuan Cong Forbidden Army" that had been guarding the Xuanwu Gate since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and later His Majesty Li Er ascended the throne, divided the "Xuanjia Iron Cavalry" who followed him to conquer the world into three parts, and one part, together with the elite left and right guards, formed the "Hundred
Some of them are still with them as guards, and some are incorporated into the "Beiya Imperial Army" to guard Xuanwu Gate. No matter which army has the best combat power in the world.
Also because the troops guarding Xuanwu Gate were loyal and flawless to the Li Tang royal family, Li Daozong could win everyone over under the banner of "fulfilling Emperor Taizong's will". This was not only because of Li Daozong's own prestige, but also because of Li Daozong's own prestige.
Almost all the troops guarding Xuanwu Gate complained about Li Chengqian's ascension to the throne.
This is the serious consequence of His Majesty Li Er's repeated attempts to save money...
In political struggles, every act that breaks through the bottom line may be rewarded accordingly at the time, but it will leave almost endless consequences.
This was the case with the "Xuanwumen Incident" that year, and it was also the case with many promotions of Yi Chu...
More than 10,000 Xuanwumen defenders easily broke through the inner gate and rushed into Taiji Palace. Regardless of the strength of the soldiers, the number of troops had an absolute advantage over the palace defenders. Even with Cheng Wuting leading 5,000 elite Youtun guards to assist in the defense, it was still difficult.
To resist the rebels' stormy offensive, they had to retreat to the front line of Ganlu Palace and Shenlong Palace, relying on the huge building complex to build a defense line and fight to the death.
But it was this line of defense that could withstand the rebels' rapid offensive.
Even though Li Daozong took command and mobilized all the troops to concentrate their forces locally to form an advantage and launch an assault, which caused the defenders to focus on one thing and the other, resulting in heavy casualties and a dangerous line of defense, it was still difficult to break through despite the desperate efforts of the defenders.
This line of defense.
Although he had not been to the front line in person, he heard from the battle report that this line of defense relied entirely on Cheng Wuting to fight left and right and fight bloody battles. Yu Wenshi praised: "This boy has the style of his father, and he can still be able to do so despite such a disadvantage."
He works hard and is a general. It seems that everyone under Fang Er's subordinates is a talented person. They were unknown at first, but after training for a while, each of them can stand on their own. This vision is really powerful.",
Li Daozong nodded, deeply convinced of this.
Today, generals such as Xue Rengui, Pei Xingjian, Liu Rengui, Liu Renyuan, Xi Junmai, etc. who once served under Fang Jun have grown into independent generals in the army and are among the best among the younger generation in the army.
One or two may be due to luck, but with so many talents emerging, one has to admire Fang Jun's vision for recognizing and employing people, and his ability to cultivate talents.
These people alone only need ten years of hard work to form a line of their own, supporting Fang Jun to become the top boss of the Tang Dynasty military. By then Zhenguan's ministers have already fallen one after another. Looking at the army, who else can compete with Fang Jun?
Not to mention, no matter whether Li Chengqian secures the throne or Li Zhi succeeds in his counterattack, the empire's strategy will focus more on internal affairs for a long time in the future. There will be no wars on the frontiers. The only force that continues to attack cities and seize military glory is the navy...
Li Daozong suddenly thought of something, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked the soldiers on his left and right: "Do you know where Fang Jun is?"
The soldiers on the left and right were at a loss, and a school captain said: "From the beginning to the end, all the battle reports have not mentioned Fang Jun's trace."
Yu Wenshiji felt deep uneasiness in his heart: "Fang Jun was ordered by the emperor to guard Xuande Gate, and Cheng Wu Ting's five thousand soldiers were all obeying his orders. Now Cheng Wu Ting and his soldiers are fighting bloody battles, how can Fang Jun abandon them? Something is wrong.
, quickly send orders to all the departments ahead to closely investigate Fang Jun’s movements.”
Now on the local battlefield of the Ganlu Palace defense line, it can be said that it is a battle between Li Daozong and Fang Jun. However, the opponent's coach has disappeared after fighting for a long time. How can this make people feel at ease?
The two of them looked at each other, and a haze arose in their hearts.
